The Philadelphia A'S new Stadium, Shibe Park, opened on April 12, 1909. Eddie Plank beat the Boston AL team. Allowing them just 6 Hits and only 1 Run.
Doc Powers was Eddie Plank's preferred battery-mate for many years.
Powers became sick during this game; however, he caught the entire game. Unfortunately, two weeks later Doc passed away due to an intestinal infection.
